The...Zen Rock, a masterpiece of luxury and serenity, has vast canyon and mountain views inviting deep contemplation. Step down the stone paths framed by stone walls, through the oaks, pines, and cedar trees of this 1/2 acre property, to your personal Temple for peaceful living. You are sheltered under an architecturally impressive Pagoda style roof. The huge great room inspires with an intricate beamed ceiling, and walls of glass leading to a wide deck, perfect for watching the fog roll in below. The kitchen is open and elegant, with Viking appliances, granite counters, and plenty of room to create feasts for your loved ones. The cozy fireplace keeps you warm on those cold nights. The stylish powder room with cement counters and a marble sink will wow your guests. The weather here in Fernwood Heights is nearly perfect, with cool coastal breezes, and bright sunny days above the fog line. Downstairs, another fireplace greets you at the end of a long day. The main suite is framed in Shoji Screens, and opens to another deck with bravura views. Soak up to your chin in the deep tub in the indulgent bathroom. The glass walled, stone shower takes in the views of the treetops. A wide vanity holds marble sinks to enhance your morning rituals. Paths tumble down towards the spring fed, seasonal creek, below. 1 lot has steps down to a shed, and could be terraced for gardens, a studio, play yards. The main lot is 3 times longer, and leads across the creek below, to a hillside with a view, that could host your teepee or yurt. Above, off-street parking for 5 cars is a neighborhood rarity. Walk into the vast wilderness of Topanga State Park, with chaparral cloaked paths, beckoning just down the street. Smell the pine scented breeze, touched with the salty hint of the nearby ocean. You are close to the village of Topanga, with it's charm-filled shops, galleries, and cafes, the coast, Santa Monica, and Malibu. You are even closer to the sky.
